AUTOMATIC CEMENT COMPRESSION TESTING MACHINES

Automatic range of single testing chamber cement compression testing machines have been designed for reliable and consistent testing of mortar samples.

These compression testers are in suitable international standards ( EN 196-1, 459-2, 1015-11, 13454- 2; ASTM C 109, C348, C349 and BS 3892-1, 4551-1).

Automatic cement compression machines are manufactured in terms of its technical properties taking into account client requirements by using suitable accessories.

These machines also meet the requirements of CE norms for safety and health of the operator. Compression jigs should be ordered separately.

The Automatic cement compression testing machines consist of very rigid two column single or single chamber frames, automatic hydraulic power pack with data acquisition and control system PX6.

The automatic cement compression testing machines allow less experienced operators to perform the tests. Once the machine has been switched on and the specimen is positioned and centered by the help of centering apparatus.

The only required operations are;
Pressing the START button on the control unit.
Automatically saves the test parameters and test results.

Power Pack
Automatic Hydraulic Power Pack, dual stage, controlled by PX6 is designed to supply the required oil to the load frames for loading. Very silent power pack can load the specimen between 50 N/sec to 2.4 kN/sec with an accuracy of ±5%. A Rapid approach pump is supplied as standard. Safety valve (maximum pressure valve) is used to avoid machine overloading.

Motor
The motor which drives the dual pump is an AC motor, 220V-240V 50/60 Hz, 1 phase and 0.75 kW and it is controlled by ENDA motor inverter. The variation in the oil flow is executed with the variation of the rotation speed of the motor.

Distribution Block
A distribution block is used to control the oil flow direction supplied by the dual stage pump, the following parts are fitted to the distribution block;
• Solenoid valve
• Safety valve (maximum pressure valve)
• Transducer
• High pressure radial piston pump

Oil Tank
The tank includes enough oil to fill the mechanism which pushes the ram during the test. The level and oil temperature can be seen on the indicator fitted to the tank. It has 18 L capacity. Hydraulic motor oil, number 46, must be used.

Safety Features
• Maximum pressure valves to avoid machine overloading
